| Summary, etc | Chronicles Of an Ac Saab is an entertaining and nostalgic collection of pieces about the author's life, a look back to a time of her first posting in the year 1983 in Bidar, one of the most remote and backward district of Karnataka, South India.<br/><br/><br/>Smt. K. Ratna Prabha, IAS, incumbent Chief Secretary, Government of Karnataka, narrates how simplicity can win the hearts of people. The most powerful writing occurs when the author conveys her belief about making her way through various life challenges. This is accomplished both with reflective dialogue and through stories.<br/><br/>The book has characteristic moments on how she moved amongst her co-workers and always maintained a low profile which surprised everyone who did not know her. Few fun times include her hiding in the kitchen and sending her mother to meet people who came to wish her and watching her mother respond to the conversations.<br/><br/>Her stories are concise, ably relaying the difficulties of being the first lady officer among the male dominated district and earning a name, fame and a position despite the hurdles she had to face.<br/><br/>This book is a ready reckoner for the aspirants of civil service. The book gives an idea about how honesty and dedication of civil servant towards duty can change life of millions.<br/><br/>She is a recipient of several Awards and was recognised by none less than the Prime Minister of India Shri. Narendra Modiji for her dedication to work. We are taught that the sky is the limit, but with her work and success Smt. K. Ratna Prabha shows that we can think beyond the sky. |
